In one type of pneumatic percussion drilling tool, the pneumatic motor has an anvil-bit which is slidable in the forward end of the motor casing between a normal working position and an abnormal advanced position when the tool is hanging off bottom and the pneumatic fluid is caused to bypass the hammer-piston and blow continuously through the anvil-bit. In order to prevent tapping or chattering of the hammer-piston at such time, as a result of leakage of the pneumatic fluid into the forward working chamber, this chamber is vented by means of one or more passages formed in the surface of the anvil-bit member which are open while the tool is blowing and which are closed in the normal operating position of the anvil-bit member. Since the passages are only in the surface of the anvil-bit member, the structure eliminates the need for special configurations of parts to provide interconnecting recesses and passages as in certain of the prior art.
